I can’t be the only one who thinks smoothies are better the thicker they are. I’m not a fan of when smoothies have the same consistency of water.

For those who are curious, one of the tricks I use to making thick smoothies is adding a pinch of xanthan gum. Even though it’s a bit pricey to buy, it is so worth it. You literally only use 1/8 tsp at a time so it lasts forever but makes such a difference.

I worked an 8 hour shift today. It only felt like I was there for maybe an hour (if that). I’ve worked at a lot of places before, and I can’t express enough how nice it is to finally work at a place where I don’t look at the time or I don’t care what time it is. It definitely makes working fun :).

I go back in a few hours, so I’m probably just going to chill at home until then. I’ll probably spend some time with my parents since our schedules don’t always line up. I love being able to go for walks with them or just talk to them. For instance, yesterday as you may know I did not feel good at all. My dad and I ended up going to get coffee together, and it helped so much :).
